If you have your wedding bands touch a second class relic, would they be considered third class relics? I know that they are not religious items per se, ie: a rosary, but they are blessed in a scaramental marriage. Thanks much.

Doesn't have to be a religious item. The big medieval "take home relic" was ordinary handkerchiefs or strips of cloth. Touching a relic is a higher class of blessing than having something blessed by a priest. (Though obviously, you would still want a relic-touched rosary blessed by a priest, to be eligible for certain blessings from the church.)

So yes, the rings would now be third-class relics as well as blessed wedding rings.

Beyond that... blessed wedding rings are a sacramental by virtue of being blessed (especially if as part of the Sacrament of Matrimony). They are _definitely_ religious items now!

That said, make sure that you remember that they _aren't_ ordinary rings anymore. You can't just throw them away; they must be burned or buried. You can't sell them to anyone; you can only destroy them or give them away. You can certainly have them resized, cleaned, etc. without losing either their sacramental or relic qualities, however.

Since this subject is open, I have a medal that was given to me by a Sister at my Catholic church, it was placed on the tomb of John Paul II and blessed by Pope Benedict XVI. I have tried to read up on relics and classes, but I am still unsure as to what I have received. I understand that John Paul II is in the "Blessed" stage of his journey to "Sainthood", is this item I possess a 3rd class relic? or does John Paul II have to be a Saint for this title to be accomplished? Any further knowledge on this subject would be helpful, and anyone who reads I thank you for your time. God bless.

No. A third class relic is an item which has touched a first class relic and not a second class relic.
